Mid-zone hepatocytes trade proliferation for survival via Atf4-Chop axis in early acute liver injury
Hepatocytes undergo extensive proliferation to facilitate liver repair after injury, yet early adaptive changes prior to proliferation remain unclear. Using a mouse model of acetaminophen (APAP)-induced liver injury, we show that hepatocytes undergo transient proliferation suppression that is most pronounced in mid-zone hepatocytes, consistent with zonal APAP metabolism. Although spatial…
